On May 21, information from the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism said that it had sent a document to the People's Committee of Hue City regarding the appraisal of the Project to restore the relic of the village road, the water wharf and the riverside landscape space of the ancient village of Phuoc Tich (Phong Dien town).

Previously, the Ministry received a report from the People's Committee of Hue City requesting appraisal of the Project to restore the relic of the village road, the water wharf and the landscape space along the river of the ancient village of Phuoc Tich (referred to as the project).

After research, the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism agreed on the project contents: Restoration and embellishment of village roads (traffic, rainwater drainage system, lighting, decoration along the route, water supply and trees); reception space combined with parking lot; reception garden; Phuoc Tich pottery kiln gate bridge; wishing garden space associated with Hoi wharf; Pottery wharf space - outdoor service point; flower pottery garden associated with Bang tree wharf; community activity space - folk performance garden associated with Dinh wharf; craft village experience space; landscape space - community activity and outdoor festival; restoration and renovation of 12 water wharves.

Also according to this document, the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism requested the People's Committee of Hue City to direct relevant agencies to pay attention to each content. Specifically, for the renovation and embellishment of the village road, Phuoc Tich pottery kiln gate bridge and public spaces, the project documents need to be reviewed to ensure compliance with the Phuoc Tich Ancient Village Relics Planning. In particular, the main roads surrounding the village have a road clearance of 5-6m, the roadbed is 3.5-5m, both sides of the road are planted with grass 0.5m - 1.0m wide; the road structure is type KC1 (ceramic brick road surface 300x150x10cm with suitable form) and must ensure the durability of the road surface structure, serving convenient traffic (for electric vehicles, 2-wheeled vehicles, rudimentary vehicles...). With Phuoc Tich pottery kiln gate bridge, reinforced concrete structure is used, wooden railings. Public spaces need to ensure harmony, not destroying the landscape of the ancient village.

For the renovation and improvement of 12 water wharves, it is necessary to scientifically clean, preserve and repair the existing railings, pillars, and animals on the top of the pillars, and retain the ceramic bricks with the name of the wharf and the year. Avoid concreting, prioritize taking advantage of the natural terrain, combine with grass and trees. The floor, steps, and step facades need to use square and rectangular ceramic bricks to pave in perpendicular lines, not in the form of mosaic ceramic tiles.

In addition, research on lighting design, especially in public areas, parking lots and roads, with characteristics of Phuoc Tich ancient village, limiting the use of prefabricated lights that can contrast with the space and landscape of the ancient village. Tree planting and landscape embellishment need to be researched and use types of trees commonly grown locally, in accordance with the planning of Phuoc Tich ancient village relics.

According to the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism, this opinion is for the People's Committee of Hue City to direct relevant agencies to complete the dossier, publicize the project content to the people, create consensus and implement the next steps according to current regulations.
